The Mountain West Conference consists of 12 member institutions competing in NCAA Division I athletics as of 2024:

• Air Force Falcons
• Boise State Broncos
• Colorado State Rams
• Fresno State Bulldogs
• Hawaii Rainbow Warriors
• Nevada Wolf Pack
• New Mexico Lobos
• San Diego State Aztecs
• San Jose State Spartans
• UNLV Rebels
• Utah State Aggies
• Wyoming Cowboys

Conference stability faces uncertainty amid ongoing collegiate athletic realignment. A notable development includes Oregon State and Washington State's scheduling partnership with the Mountain West following Pac-12's dissolution. This arrangement could lead to future expansion opportunities or partnerships.

The conference's future may involve:

• Potential addition of former Power Five programs
• Possible loss of current members to larger conferences
• Continued adaptation to collegiate sports' changing landscape

The Mountain West maintains its competitive position in both football and basketball, with member institutions regularly competing for conference championships and bowl game appearances.
